Afflicted

(앨범: Loose Threads - 2020)

This feverish feeling
Long-lasting and fleeting
I yearn for the day a breath can fill my lungs again
Then take me away
I taste the poison everyday

So take me away
From everything that's kept me sick
Holding onto this pain
Will only bring me misery

I'll never be the last one standing
A fact of life and now I must face it
This sickness inside
Won't let me hide, God knows I've tried
Discarded, unwanted, a product of the forgotten
I hope someday I'll find the strength to feel alive

Take me away from all of my suffering
Please bury me with all of my misery
Until I feel the rain
And it helps me wash this pain away
I taste the poison everyday
Everyday

Even though these moments are fleeting
I just know I don't want you to save me
This fever is what keeps my heart beating
And I doubt I'll ever even save myself

I'll never be the last one standing
A fact of life and now I must face it
This darkness inside
Has never been a friend of mine
Discarded, unwanted, a product of the forgotten
I hope someday I'll find the strength to feel alive

Take me away from all of my suffering
Please bury me with all of my misery
Until I feel the rain
And it helps me wash this pain away
I taste the poison everyday

Even though these moments are fleeting
I just know I don't want you to save me
This fever is what keeps my heart beating
And I doubt I'll ever even save myself
I taste the poison everyday

Take me away
(Take me away, take me away)
Please bury me
(Bury me, won't you bury me?)
Until I feel the rain
And it helps me wash this pain away
I taste the poison everyday
Everyday
